- Bottles in Build (Sento)'s possession:
- Shinobu asking Sento if he'd grown taller is an accurate observation since Atsuhiro Inukai is in fact actually taller than Yukiaki Kiyama.
- When Sento transforms into Genius Form, his Hazard Trigger is also attached, which reveals that the Hazard Trigger only give the black armor transformation for the regular Fullbottles, the Great Cross-Z Dragon and the FullFull RabbitTank Fullbottle.
- The planet in which Evolto warps Build to greatly resembles the Planet of Helheim.
- This is the last time that Seiji Takaiwa will be the suit actor for Kamen Rider Build since he will be filming for Kamen Rider Zi-O. Yuji Nakata will be Takaiwa's substitute and portrays Build in-suit from this point on.
- The TV announcement at the end of the episode that Kengo Ino, Ryoka Saiga, and Mitsuomi Gobara will become the new governors directly ties into the events of the the summer film, which in turn, the post-credits scene of the film directly ties into the events of the next episode.
